PREFACE Thank you very much for choosing our BAOFENG Dual Band Digital DMR and Analog two way radio. This radio adopts the latest advances in technology, providing reliable communication in today’s demanding communication environment. This radio offers both DMR digital and analog communication, introduces innovative DMR digital processing system to achieve SMS, high-audio quality and digital encryption. It offers great stability, and reliability, together with long distance communication as well as fashionable design and compact exterior lines. This radio has Text Messaging, Recording, Voice Message, Digital Encryption, Emergency Alarm, Work Alone GPS, APRS Location Reporting, Analog DTMF; CTCSS/CDCSS encode/decode functions. PROGRAMMING NOTES When programming the radio, start by reading the factory software data, and then rewrite this data with your frequency etc., to a new saved code plug, otherwise errors may occur. You can use the programming cable with a PC to program the frequency, channel type, power etc. you programming must comply with your FCC (or other country) license certification. European Users should note that operation of this unit in Transmit mode requires the operator to have a valid Amateur Radio License from their respective Countries Amateur Radio Licensing Authority for the Frequencies and Transmitter Power levels that this Radio transmits on. Failure to comply may be unlawful and liable for prosecution. At this subject, refer to the "EU" specification guide 2014/53/EU. PROGRAMMING GUIDE The programming software and code plug programming guide are available for download from BAOFENG website: https://www.baofengradio.com When programming this radio for the first time, it is recommended you first READ the radio with the software and then save this file for future reference as it contains the default programming and settings. In addition, after you READ this radio with software, first make you programming and frequency changes, and then write the edited file to your radio. You will need the programming cable to connect your radio to your computer for programming. To perform a firmware upgrade, press the ‘#’ key, then turn on the power and volume switches to enter firmware upgrade mode. 1. Install CPS Programming Software 1) Double-click and run the CPS DM-1702 (English) v1.00.55.exe file; 2) Click “NEXT” to install the CPS programming software. 2. Firmware Update 1) Connect the machine to the computer using the programming cable. 2) Open the CPS DM-1702 programming software and open the firmware upgrade tool via “Program -> Tool”. 3) Press and hold the ‘#’ button to turn on the light, then the green light will be on. 4) Click on the upgrade software "Load" and load the upgrade package. 5) Click “Upgrade” of the upgrade software and wait for the upgrade to succeed. 6) Close and reopen. Picture 1: Firmware update tool Picture 2: Firmware update 3. Programming the DM-1702 The process of configuring the radio using CPS write frequency software is as follows. Picture 2: Configure the radio process If you have a radio configuration file locally, you can also open the local configuration file in CPS for configuration and then write it to the radio (write frequency). Before programming your radio, read the current information from the radio to your PC to create an initial CPS template and at the same time backup the factory data for future use. 3.1 Read data When reading data from the DM-1702 or writing data to the DM-1702, the software provides a variety of operational paths: Picture 2: Read data To read in all frequency settings as well as further settings from your DM-1702 radio, use this option. 3.2 Write data Whenever you have made your changes and additions to the settings of your DM-1702 radio use this option to write your settings to the radio. 3.3 Read/Write Contacts The DMR Contact List can hold information on over 100K DMR IDs. A transfer from or to your DM-1702 radio may take up to 5 minutes. 3.3.1 Import DMR ID database to your CPS You can choose to download the full DMR ID database according to your needs. entries, the list contains almost all amateur radio database at various sites, such as Make sure that your CSV- file looks similar to the following picture.

Picture 17: DTMF Signaling When the DTMF code word is been sent, the speaker issue s the corresponding DTMF tones. None ’, ‘Pre Only’, ‘Post Only’ or ‘Pre & Post’. You can use the DTMF characters ‘A’, ‘B’, ‘C’, ‘D’, ‘*’ or ‘#’ to set up a group called ‘universal character code’. If the receiver receives a valid ID acknowledgement before trying a number of polite transmissions. This feature sets mber of attempts to transmit an emergency alarm politely. signaling, certain settings need to be applied to configuration page. s the corresponding or ‘#’ to set up a group called code and one or all of its digits are replaced by the ‘universal character’ group call code, the call will become decoded. KeyUp Encode The analog channel transmits the PTTID corresponding to the DTMF code, as the channel is been activated by pressing the PTT. KeyDown Encode The analog channel transmits the PTTID corresponding to the DTMF code, as the channel is been deactivated by releasing the PTT. Auto Reset Time When the signal is decoded correctly, the automatic reset timer resets the DTMF decoder and mutes the speaker if there is no communication activity within a certain period of time. You do not need to perform a manual reset (using the monitor key). The timer starts running as the carrier drops. First Digit Time Allows you to set the delay time from the start of transmission to the first DTMF digit (factor that takes the decoder start time into account). Increasing this time interval is the same as adding ‘First Code Duration’. Digit Duration Allows you to set the delay time from the start of the launch to the first DTMF digital transmission (considering the factors that start the decoder's time). Increasing this interval is the same as increasing the duration of the first code. *# Digit Time [ms] This parameter is extending the # * sound transmission time. In some systems, these two codes must be set longer than the numerical codes. 11. VFO Mode The VFO mode is the similar to the ‘VFO Mode’ to get to the appropriate configuration page.
